On its face, the Apple siblings are just on a mini-quest to find out what the deal is with Pears and why the Apples hate them so much. But quickly we’re on a path to one of the sweetest love stories ever told, with all the warm, fuzzy, wonderful feelings in tow. And as the writers weave together this little ball of emotions, they also show exactly how much Bright Mac and Pear Butter influenced their little ones, even if they aren’t around today to show us.
